Herbicidal combinations and method of controlling weeds in crops

ABSTRACT

Herbicidal r-2-alkyl-5-alkyl-c-5-(2-substituted-benzyloxy)-1,3-dioxanes used in combination with certain crop herbicides, e.g. metribuzin, reduce the injury to the crop while maintaining satisfactory control of broad-leaved weeds and improving control over undesired grasses. The invention is exemplified by the control of weeds in soybeans by the combination of a dioxane with metribuzin.
